See my other reponse to this thread. ~/bin at the front of $PATH is a security risk. It should not be put there by default. Users can put it there themselves. If they don't know how they probably don't know enough to evaluate the risks. -- John Hasler -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
